Where is the scanner? OEO?

Hello people.

Today I found myself looking for a scanner in a small, small town on the edge of Pelloponnese. I felt like an RPGer on a quest. First, I asked for info at the hotel's reception. The good lady showed me a generic direction, to get to an internet cafe. After reaching the town's boarders, I asked a young man for the internet cafe. He gave me specific directions and I ended up finding it.

But there was no scanner.

The cashier told me she knew nothing. I kept walking and entered a mobile service store. A customer told me to turn right, pass the bridge and that there, I would find what I sought.
I ended up a little lost, so I had to ask in another store (I think it was actually a mechanic or something)
And then I found it.

I scanned, I printed and I got a free local paper :D

The bottom line is:
I can keep working and maybe, I said maybe, I could live in a town like that. For a while. Till now I've been a loyal Athens' kid. Even though it is dirty, loud, pretty faceless, tiring and stuff.
But here it's quiet, fun, warm... And a little bit boring. Until I get to know the place.

Apart from these little adventures, I am still pencilling for Womanthology and an Arcana project. I'll make sure there is something to upload with my next post.

Till next time,
Koumaki.

PLUS!
Check HER out! She's a classmate and an upcoming artist. You will surely hear more from her...

Now in vacation-still working.

How can that be..? We are staying at a relative's hotel and I am drawing, doing pages.

Like a boss.
I am carrying about 10kg of work with me-if you count in my drawing tablet and my laptop.
It's a busy summer after all.

Still, it's better than back at home-It's not as hot and I don't have to carry my laptop around, going to university to get (free) internet access. (did I mention I got a three day cramp from carrying that thing around..? Still recovering)

At least, I'm done with drawing the logo for the university's internal medicine department. As we were choosing fonts, the proffessor told me he liked COMIC SANS.
And I was like no, no NOOO...

Plus, I ended up having only one exam to sit for in September-Pharmacology.
AWESOME.

So, now I am pencilling for an Arcana publications project, the Womanthology project and thumbnailing for my personal story.

Like I said, busy.
That's good.

Till next time, I hope I'll have some sketches I can share.

Womanthology

Hey people,

Have you heard about the Womanthology-Heroic project?
If not, check it out here!

Womanthology is a project of Renae De Liz, to help fund charities around the world.
It is a book with many short comic stories depicting heroism in any level.
The whole book will be written, drawn, inked, coloured and lettered by women!

And I've been paired with Devin Grayson to draw her amazing story for the project!
Wait for it. :)

Plus, I'm slowly but steadily starting pages for a project and thumbnailing for another.
And combining it with vacation.
I'll be pencilling with view to the Deer Island. (not the Canada one)

Oh deer.

Plot's over!!!

Good news, certainly good news. My personal project's plot is over, and we are now ready to move on to thumbnails, as soon as exams are over.
I've never been able to take such a long story so far, so good. Thanks again George, for the help. :)

That's about all... Brief, huh?

Till next time! xxx

Easter is over...

...And we are all back from wherever we went for holidays, rushing through wahtever we have to do before universities, schools etc, open on Monday...

This measures up to a perspective assignment (done),
a 'good and evil' comic 8 panels long, inked and coloured (to be done),
an illustration altering a photograph (haaalf-way through...? god, i had to pick a mermaid for that... damn you, water lighting effects)
and an exercise with copics (half-way-to-almost-finished)

And now the fun part:
A (should i call it that..?) thesis on soft coatings for dentures
and another one for immobilizing periodontic teeth.

Not to mention studying.....
Which I don't. do. But i should. Later.

Now the real good part :D
I am almost completely done with the plot for my personal comic project. this means that I am one step closer to my goal :D (thanks for all the help George..!!!!)

Next, thumbnails!!! :D

i'm back! again.

Hello people :)

It's been a long time since i last updated my blog, my DA account, sketches on my facebook and everything...
I got caught up in dentistry thingies during and after the exams... I'm still struggling to keep up and remember what I have to do for each lab. But hey, I pull it through!

Now, here's a little something i did last night, playing with copics, coloured pencils and photoshop. I like how it turned out and yes, I feel proud of it. :)
Projectwise, I'm still working on a big one-shot comic with a friend (thank you George..!!!!) but nothing more will be revealed, as it is still in development, and in really early stages.

All i have to say is I AM COUNTING DAYS TILL COMICDOM CON!
It will be aaawesoooome and fuuuun and there will be cooomic people all around that i haven't seen in mooonths, and comics, and panels, and comics and stuff!

Ah, comicdom. :)

Will YOU be there?

Cupcakes :3

Hello people!

It's been a long time since i last updated. Sorry!!!

I'm attending two univeristies, which means double exams, so, please regard me kindly, because i'm feeling like THAT:

To keep things sweet, here are a sushi (what? oops, ok, that's not sweet), a cookie and a cupcake :3
Also, to my AKTO friends, we will make some of these... Next gathering will be for cupcakes!
Last time was this awesome (and delicious) choco-bisquit house.

Otherwise, all is going well. :) Just wish me luck for my exams....

Oh, and wish me courage. next semester, i'll be going to comic college three days a week and doing about 4 hours labs, per day.

But it's worth it.

So! Till next time, enjoy yourselves and read comics.
